This was a surprise winner for me. I actually didn't know what this story was about when I first embarked on this journey. And I was addicted, like it was heroin. I felt a rush through out the entire 15 episodes, I kept wanting to know what will happen next . When I finally got to the end, it left me feeling incomplete and desperate for more answers, so I scoured the web and found the original Chinese web novel and chow it down in record time. Overall, the entire drama to novel and back to drama journey has been an surreal experience to say the least, one that I would not easily forget.

About the ending... I don't want to give anything away, but if you are like me and felt you want more, here is the link (http://www.56wen.com/txt/12035.html) to the Chinese original web novel. It is 70 sections long and the drama ended in mid section 21. So yeah, I felt like I have hit the jackpot! I enjoy the writing very much and the drama mostly followed the novel, so it followed the same theme as the drama, I just couldn't stop.

About the drama... I loved the drama, I loved the cast, and I loved the story. It didn't set up the 2 main characters as one lowly and one privileged like hundreds of other dramas that I have watched. These 2 characters are so genuine, so much alike , so honest, and their relationship is so organic. Their love for each other is so related-able, I almost want to swing that way but at last lack the proper equipment. The young actors did a wonderful job, portrayed such love and tenderness while showed off their natural masculinity. It was definitely a good drama. The story is so gripping that you may not notice the rough around some edges. I am sure the funding was limited due to the fact that it was a web production, but it does not disappoint.

About the music... I have to mention that the one song that stood out most for for me was by Twinbed titled "Trouble I'm in". I have been addicted to it since I've found it. You can find it on youtube through this link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvW63QsIxts&list=RDOvW63QsIxts&index=1)

I hope you will watch this drama and read the web novel to see where it will take you. Have a good journey!
